Tashkent

I am tired and the weather is very hot. Got a cab to a Syrian restaurant and had probably the best meal I have had in the whole of Uzbekistan. It was called Arabian chicken. The food inthis country hasn’t really been anything to write home about. They have meat on skewers or soup or dumplings and that is pretty much it. All three are nice but you can only eat the same thing so much. Tonight was a nice change. Went to bed early and finished my book – Midnights Children. It’s immense, all about India and masterfully told. Took me ages to read but worth it. I wanna go India now. Laters.
